Wortho Posted 30 April 2017 Share Posted 30 April 2017 Watford are an annoying side. Really hope we can win this as I know loads of their fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd also give Gray a full game instead of Marhez. Apart from the latter's form, we now need to get some regular Premiership experience into Gray in case Marhez leaves this summer (though I suspect that he won't have as many suitors this year as last, not for the amount of money we'd want for him anyway).

Quite extreme circumstances though, I really rate Simpson but he's not a centreback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it's not like Fuchs is a centreback either. I'd be more comfortable with them in the back line than Amartey or Was. Or even Benalouane who tends to go walkbout.

UPinCarolina Posted 1 May 2017 Share Posted 1 May 2017 Really, really excited for the rest of the season. Whenever we have played with absolute freedom, we've had a day to remember. Think QPR at the KP 2015, or Everton at the KP 2016. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Royston. Posted 1 May 2017 Share Posted 1 May 2017 I would like to see Gray start for all remaining games and mahrez coming on if and when. Are we afraid of pissing Riyad off in case he leaves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ted Maul Posted 2 May 2017 Share Posted 2 May 2017 Looking forward to this game- we always do well when the pressure is off at the end of the season. Hopefully we can kick on and nick a spot in the top half- it's so tight in the middle of the table (6 points separating 8th and 16th) that we really have to beat both Watford and Bournemouth if we want to do it.

LCCFox96 Posted 2 May 2017 Share Posted 2 May 2017 I'd like to see us put in another good, attacking him performance but also register a clean sheet like Stoke and Sunderland. Another 2-0 and a good performance to build on would be just the ticket. I'd also like to see some slight rotation with 40 points achieved and the likelihood of relegation slim: Schmeichel Simpson Huth Benalouane Chilwell Albrighton Ndidi Amartey Gray Slimani Vardy The Slimani/Vardy partnership might as well be tested. With 3 starts - obviously injury dependent - I can see Slim turning his 7 PL goals so far into double figures, which when Deadline day arrival, team form until Shakespeare, AFCON and injury spells is all said and done is a decent return. Gray and Chilwell getting pitch time makes sense with little to play for, likewise Amartey to see if he can rediscover the pre-AFCON form - he was excellent at Stoke away.

We may have both Huth and Morgan out injured, I'd wait until the teams are announced. Benny is OK but doesn't he struggle against big powerful strikers like Deeney? Him + Fuchs/Was/Amartey doesn't exactly inspire confidence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy Posted 2 May 2017 Share Posted 2 May 2017 If Harvey Barnes is available I'd have him and Kap on the bench but from now until the end of the season both Gray and Chilwell should be playing every game from the start Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dynamark Posted 2 May 2017 Share Posted 2 May 2017 HI Just cannot see Shaky deviating from the tried and trusted bearing in mid hes looking for the job to be confirmed.. Maybe a lot earlier subs for Gray for sure .I'm still not getting Chilwell in front of Fuchs at left back but he does do better further up on the left if the game needs it.

We will have 4 teams in the champions league and 3 in the Europa. 8th would still give us the title of 'best of the rest' which I'd say was our current level. We'll have to be battling with Everton to breach the top 7 next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
